Conditional dialogue

 Before starting

It's best to first read First Interaction Facts before starting this tutorial. Also, make sure you have created a sequence page.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to create conditional dialogue. This means that if the player has a certain fact set to a specific value, it will then display the correct dialogue.

Adding a spoken

First we need to add a spoken. This can be learned by following the First Interaction tutorial.

Configuring the spoken

In the spoken we will set the field text to Hey you clicked me for the first time.

Setting the Criteria

Now we need to configure the criteria for the spoken. This can be done by clicking on the + icon in the inspector next to the criteria field. Then, you can select the fact you want to use. For this tutorial, we will use a permanent fact called Flower Clicked with the group set to a player group.

Flower Clicked Fact

Inside the criteria, set the operator to == and the value to 0.

Configuring the Modifier

You have configured the criteria, but now we need to modify the fact so that when you click the flower again, a different spoken is displayed. This can be done by clicking on the + icon in the inspector next to the modifier field. Then, you can select the fact you want to modify. For this tutorial, we will use the same fact as the criteria. Inside the modifier, set the operator to = and the value to 1.

Add Spoken Fields

Adding the second spoken

Now we need to add the second spoken. This can be done by right-clicking on the On Interact Block Event entry and selecting + Link with .... Then, search for Add Spoken and click on the + icon to add it to your sequence.
In the text field we will set Wow you clicked me again! Your sequence page should look like this:

Conditional dialogue sequence

Configuring the second spoken Criteria

Now we need to configure the criteria for the second spoken. This can be done by clicking on the + icon in the inspector next to the criteria field. Then, select the Flower Clicked fact again. Inside the criteria, set the operator to == and the value to 1.

Additional dialogue

To add more dialogues or interactions when you click the flower, set another modifier with the operator to = and the value to 2 (or any other value), then repeat the previous steps.

Result

Now, when you click the flower for the first time, the first spoken will be displayed. When you click the flower again, the second spoken will be displayed.
